Title says it all really. Looking for a handful of mods that I can put on to make playing a pure mage more fun. Things like more spell effects, different spells, different methods of casting, magic items aimed at mages, etc. Anyone know of anything good?

LAME (Less annoying magic experience.)

Supreme Magicka.

Midas Magic.

Fearsome Magicka.

Advanced Magecraft. (more of a mechanics, than spells and such. Yep, shameless plug)

All available at TESNexus.

Ok, ill look into those. Right now I have Enhanced Magic System left over from an old install. Is that still relevant? Also, any new mage specific guilds/quests/etc

While this might not be that handy for a traditional mage I highly recommend http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=25224. It lets you infuse a weapon with your currently active spells.
